I guess I didn't make this clear enough. I have a proprietary
application that runs on a Linux server. I want to define a printer,
that includes a specific fax number in the configuration. When the
user chooses to print to that printer, from within the application, it
will send a fax to the fax machine/telephone number defined in the
printer configuration. There is no samba, no windows clients involved
in this application. It runs on the Linux server and is accessed
through a terminal session. There is no opportunity to input a phone
number in the application, the phone number needs to be configured in
either the printcap (unlikely) or the printer filter. Sambafax won't
do the job.
